Exploring Lanzarote
The popular holiday island of Lanzarote is located in the Canaries. The group of seven Spanish owned islands located off the coast of Morocco close to the Tropic of Cancer. Where tourists can bask in warm weather all year round. This wonderful weather has helped the Canaries to become the second most visited holiday destination in Spain. With over 1.5 million tourists enjoying their holidays in Lanzarote – the fourth largest of the islands – over the course of last year alone.
So lets check out a little more about the island and island life to see why family holidays in Lanzarote never fails to be such a popular choice and choosing one of the Lanzarote villas and apartment that the island offers is fast becoming the popular do it yourself accommodation choice amongst travellers.
Lanzarote is very different from the other islands in the Canaries. As they are all greener and more lush, whilst Lanzarote is dry and barren. Which can be attributed to the fact that Lanzarote experiences very little in the way of rainfall and has a very arid terrain created by volcanic eruptions over 250 years ago.
Today this region of the island occupies about a quarter of Lanzarote´s total land mass. And is a hugely popular visitor attraction, known locally as The Fire Mountains or Timanfaya. Where visitors can view a lunar like landscape that has served as a backdrop for a number of science fiction films and most recently the latest release from Spanish director Pedro Almodovar, Broken Embraces. Which stars Penelope Cruz and which was shot on location around the island.
Lanzarote´s tourist industry has been operating for over forty years so there are plenty of god quality places to stay. Ranging from cheap apartments through to luxurious Lanzarote villas and hotels. With most of the accommodation located in the three main tourist resorts of Costa Teguise, Puerto del Carmen and Playa Blanca. Demand for rural holidays has also started to grow over the last few years.
As well as the volcanic region Lanzarote is a real beach lover’s paradise, home to about 90 fine stretches of sand. The best of which can be found outside the main resorts in locations such as Famara and Arrieta. Both of which are still unspoiled coastal villages.
Many first time visitors are surprised by the wide range of cultural attractions on offer too. After all isn’t this supposed to be Lanzagrotty? There’s an abundance of fascinating museums, such as the Emigration Museum which charts what happened to islanders after the volcanic eruptions as they fled to create new lives abroad. A wealth of historic towns such as Teguise – the island capital until 1852. And the various works of the local artist Cesar Manrique – who had a huge influence on the development of tourism on Lanzarote.

Frequently Asked Questions...
Is there a scientific term for the surreal mental state that one can experience at an art museum?
When I go to an art museum, especially the modern art museum, I can get so sucked into the art that I feel an intense surreal mental state. It's literally like I am under the influence of a drug. Is there a term for this?
Answer:
Enraptured, exaltative, euphoric - enthralled in a sublime aesthetic experience =)
